LUNG CANCER
Lung cancer is the uncontrolled growth of
abnormal cells in one or both of the lungs.
Cigarette smoking causes most lung cancers
when smoke gets in the lungs. Lung cancer
kills 1.3 million people each year, more than
any other cancer. It is currently the leading
cause of cancer death in both men and
women, it kills more women than breast
cancer, Ovarian cancer and uterine cancers
together.[

TYPES OF LUNG CANCER
STAGES OF LUNG CANCER
CAUSES OF LUNG CANCER
RISKS FACTORS FOR LUNG CANCER
TREATMENT FOR LUNG CANCER
The chemotherapy treatment
plan for lung cancer often
consists of a combination of
drugs. Among the drugs most
commonly used are cisplatin
(Platinol) or carboplatin
(Paraplatin) plus docetaxel
(Taxotere), gemcitabine
(Gemzar), paclitaxel (Taxol
and others), vinorelbine
(Navelbine and others), or
pemetrexed (Alimta).
Radiotherapy uses high
energy rays to
kill cancer cells. Cance
r specialists use
radiotherapy to treat all
types of lung cancer.
For non small cell lung
cancer you may
have radiotherapy on
its own. Or you may
have it with another
treatment, such as
chemotherapy or
surgery
DURGS FOR LUNG CANCER
PREVENTION FOR LUNG CANCER
There's no sure way to
prevent lung cancer,
but you can reduce
your risk if you: Don't
smoke. If you've never
smoked, don't start.
Talk to your children
about not smoking so
that they can
understand how to
avoid this major risk
factor for lung cancer
